Liu Zheng and his team were stopped by 'Sunshine Pet Store' employees while on their way to a cemetery for deodorization. Skinny Horse intervened, brutally killing the employees. Liu Zheng used a bloodied document to pass the roadblock, with Skinny Horse escorting him. After arriving at the cemetery, Liu Zheng had two Xi Family Army members use specialized deodorization equipment, which proved to be a grueling and dangerous task. Xi He and Xi Zhi volunteered to continue the work, and an eager Dead Boy was assigned to assist with logistics.

Liu Zheng said.

"Yes!"

The Dead Boy, who was initially a bit unhappy, became cheerful again, feeding Xi Zhi and Xi Jiang while using his clothes to wipe the grime from their mouths.

"I couldn’t tell, you’re quite good at taking care of people."

Liu Zheng raised an eyebrow.

"I have no choice, my mom’s a fool, if I don’t learn to take care of people, Life won’t go on."

The Dead Boy said calmly.

"Hmm, do you want to go to the surface?"

Liu Zheng asked.

He planned to ask the Lamp God, if the Kowloon Walled City’s matter is settled, he could arrange for the Dead Boy to go to Morrison Primary School.

"No."

The Dead Boy shook his head sharply.

"Why not?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"There’s nothing good on the surface. The Xi Family Army is quite nice to me and they need me."

The Dead Boy replied.

The former pet humans are very lacking in various basic knowledge, relying solely on biological instincts for survival, in this regard, the Dead Boy indeed is qualified to be their teacher.

"If you stay further, you might turn out like them."

Liu Zheng reminded.

"I wasn’t good-looking to begin with, it’s fine."

The Dead Boy was pretty carefree about it.

"Alright then."

Liu Zheng didn’t try to persuade him further.

As long as you’re alive, compared to those who died in the Kowloon Walled City, you’ve already gained a lot.

After half an hour, Xi He and Xi Zhi still hadn’t come out.

Liu Zheng frowned, took out the remaining deodorization equipment, put it on, and entered the cemetery.

The familiar stench entered his seven senses through the inhalation outlet on the mask, assaulting his sensory nerves.

"Yuck!"

Liu Zheng instinctively wanted to vomit, but with his strong will and constitution, he held back.

Although it was still very smelly, the stench soup couldn’t directly alter his sensory system or invade his Spirit world after being weakened by the deodorization equipment.

Even though the indicator light on his back was quickly extracting his blood, this degree of blood extraction was still within his endurance.

Liu Zheng observed around through the peephole and soon spotted Xi He and Xi Zhi.

At this moment, Xi Zhi had already collapsed on the ground, while Xi He stood firm.

He walked behind Xi He and found her indicator light had turned dark green, she was merely holding on.

"Xi He!"

Liu Zheng shouted, yet Xi He had no response.

"These guys, not a single one makes me worry less."

He shook his head, carrying one and took them out of the cemetery.

Packing people and equipment in the vehicle, Liu Zheng took them back to the Clinic.

"Your subordinates indeed have a high casualty rate."

Doctor Nile River looked at the Xi Family Army lying all over and teased.

"No choice, I’m their boss doing a job that risks my head."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

"Doctor, where’s Ma Fuguo?"

He asked.

"The father-daughter duo has already returned to the martial arts hall. Ma Baoli’s recovery speed is much faster than anticipated."

Doctor Nile River replied.

"Oh."

Liu Zheng nodded, that must be the work of Innate Qi.

"Xiao Mei, Sasha, move the patients to the surgery room."

Doctor Nile River shouted.

"Okay, Doctor."

"Okay, Dad."

The cleaners and Sasha came out pushing carts, moving all four of the Xi Family Army into the surgery room.

"Is it troublesome?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"It’s alright. They’ve been assimilated by the sewer, the medicine made from sewer matter should work very well on them."

Doctor Nile River said.

"Alright, then I’ll rely on you."

Liu Zheng stated solemnly, then took out a million and handed it over.

Favors are favors, but constantly freeloading isn’t right.

Doctor Nile River didn’t refuse, accepting it directly.

He knew Liu Zheng wasn’t short on money, and this business will eventually belong to them anyway.

Leaving the Clinic, Liu Zheng returned to the cemetery.

He put the deodorization equipment on and entered the cemetery, then opened the detection device that came with the equipment.

The results showed the stench concentration had dropped by about 5 points compared to at the start.

Which means, the same process needs to be repeated 19 more times.

"Looks like relying solely on the Xi Family Army isn’t going to cut it."

Liu Zheng quickly exited, then contemplated.

-----------------

"I, I also want to help out."

The Dead Boy said shyly.

"What you should do is eat well, study hard, and grow up nicely."

Liu Zheng lifted him out of the car and handed him a bunch of food and drinks.

"If you really want to do something, take good care of them. Logistics work is a very important part too."

Liu Zheng said.

"Yes!"

The Dead Boy, who was initially a bit unhappy, cheered up and began feeding Xi Zhi and Xi Jiang while wiping the dirt from the corners of their mouths with his own clothes.

"Didn’t expect it, you’re quite good at taking care of people."

Liu Zheng raised an eyebrow.

"I have no choice. My mom is an idiot. If I don’t learn to take care of people, life won’t go on."

The Dead Boy said calmly.

"Well, do you want to go to the surface?"

Liu Zheng asked.

He planned to ask the Lamp God. If the situation in Kowloon Walled City was over, he could arrange for the Dead Boy to attend Morrison Primary School.

"No."

The Dead Boy shook his head vigorously.

"Why?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Nothing good on the surface. The Xi Family Army treats me well and they need me."

The Dead Boy replied.

These former pet humans lacked all kinds of common sense, and their life skills relied entirely on biological instincts. In this regard, the Dead Boy was indeed capable enough to be their teacher.

"Stay any longer, and you might end up like them."

Liu Zheng reminded.

"I wasn’t good-looking, to begin with, it’s fine."

The Dead Boy took it lightly.

"Alright then."

Liu Zheng didn’t persuade him further.

Being alive is good enough, considering it was already a huge gain compared to those who died in Kowloon Walled City.

Half an hour passed, and Xi He and Xi Zhi still hadn’t come out.

Liu Zheng frowned, took out the remaining deodorizing equipment, put it on, and walked into the cemetery.

The familiar stench entered his sensory system through the mask’s filter ports, assaulting his sensory nerves.

"Ugh!"

Liu Zheng instinctively wanted to vomit but held it back with his strong willpower and constitution.

Though it was still very smelly, the deodorizing equipment’s weakening effect prevented the extreme stench from directly altering his sensory system or invading his Spirit.

Even though the indicator light on his back quickly drew his blood, this level of blood extraction was still within his tolerance.

Liu Zheng observed the surroundings through the peephole and soon spotted Xi He and Xi Zhi.

By then, Xi Zhi had already collapsed on the ground, while Xi He remained standing.

He walked behind Xi He and found her indicator light had turned dark green, meaning she was only holding on.

"Xi He!"

Liu Zheng shouted, but Xi He didn’t react.

"These guys, none of them let me rest easy."

He shook his head, picked them up, and carried them out of the cemetery.

After loading the people and equipment into the car, Liu Zheng took them back to the Clinic.

"The casualty rate among your subordinates is quite high."

Doctor Nile observed the Xi Family Army lying all over the place and quipped.

"Can’t help it, since my own job is a risky one."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

"Doctor, where is Ma Fuguo?"

He asked.

"They have returned to the martial arts school. Ma Baoli is recovering much faster than expected."

Doctor Nile replied.

"Oh."

Liu Zheng nodded. That must be the effect of Innate Qi.

"Xiao Mei, Sasha, move the patients to the operating room."

Doctor Nile called out.

"Yes, Doctor."

"Yes, Dad."

The cleaner and Sasha came out with a cart and wheeled all four of the Xi Family Army into the operating room.

"Is it troublesome?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Not too bad. They’ve already been assimilated by the sewer, and the medicine made from the sewer materials should work very well for them."

Doctor Nile said.

"Alright, I’ll leave it to you."

Liu Zheng said solemnly, then handed over one million to him.

Friendship is one thing, but always relying on favors is another.

Doctor Nile didn’t refuse and accepted it directly.

He knew Liu Zheng was not short of money, and their future business would ultimately be theirs.

Leaving the Clinic, Liu Zheng returned to the cemetery entrance.

He put on the deodorizing equipment and walked into the cemetery, then turned on the detector that came with the equipment.

The test results showed that the odor concentration had decreased by about 5 points since the beginning.

This means that the same process needs to be repeated 19 more times.

"It seems relying solely on the Xi Family Army won’t do."

Liu Zheng quickly retreated, then pondered.
